Several pundits have called for Constantine Hatzidakis to be banned for at least eight games following his altercation with Andy Robertson yesterday.
At half time between Liverpool and Arsenal yesterday, Robertson was seen walking over to Hatzidakis to say a few words, with the latter seen throwing his elbow toward the face of the Scotsman.
Darren Bent took to Twitter after the incident occurred and got straight to the point, saying: “Eight game ban for the linesman“, while on 5 Live, Chris Sutton cited Aleksandar Mitrovic’s eight-match ban for his push on Chris Kavanagh as a benchmark for punishment.
“As far as I can see, he has to be banned.
“He will have to sit out a number of games. I can’t remember another incident like this. Where is the precedent for these things? A big debating point was Mitrovic and the eight-game suspension and the FA want him banned for more, but you can’t have assistants throwing elbows. What should the punishment be?”
Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City love the run-in!
They have collected the most points (145) in the final 10 matches of the season across the last six Premier League campaigns

Oleksandr Zinchenko was seen crying on the bench after being subbed off against Liverpool yesterday and it’s now been revealed why he was in tears.
Zinchenko was subbed off straight after Liverpool’s 87th-minute equaliser from Roberto Firmino yesterday, as the Ukranian cut a broken-hearted figure on the subs’ bench.
According to Talksport (via SportBible), the reason behind the left-back’s outpouring of emotions is due to the fact that he felt he was at fault for the goal, as he was nutmegged by Trent Alexander-Arnold for the eventual assist for the equalising goal, which he also felt cost his side two crucial points in the race for the Premier League title.
The result leaves Arsenal now just six points ahead of Manchester City, while Liverpool remain 8th, still in the hunt for a European place.
